“My birthday wish ✨ thank you everyone for all the birthday love! This year I’m raising funds for @smiletrainph to help give Filipino children a smile this 2020. You can donate via gogetfunding.com/catrionagivesasmile/ 😁💙
My goal is to raise 500,000 Pesos / $9000 in one week that equates to 36 life changing surgeries. 🙏 thank you!”
